These factors somehow demotivate aspirants a lot during the CAT preparation journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is one more inspiring story of an iQuanta student, Anuj, who got low marks in mocks, such as 9 marks in VARC and 11 marks in QA, but consistency lets him get an outstanding 99.98 percentile in the final exam and successfully convert to IIM Kozhikode. His journey with iQuanta proved that if you are consistent towards your dream and following the right preparation strategy, then anything that you dreamed of can be achievable. His determination, hard work and consistency finally get him admitted to one of the top MBA colleges in India. Let&#8217;s discuss the detailed journey of a CAT topper, Anuj Kumar Upadhyay, and how iQuanta played an important role in his CAT preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><mark>Join iQuanta\u2019s diversified student community for free and prepare with other 4.1L+ peers.

The motivating statement from Raj, sir, &#8220;You just keep your head down and work&#8221; is one of the motivating parts for Anuj during his CAT preparation journey. The consistent practice series of iQuanta also helped him in building consistency that translated his efforts towards preparation for what actually CAT wants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said that &#8220;iQuanta&#8217;s conceptual and application classes are the sufficient source for learning, which makes your syllabus going to be revised 4 times.&#8221; From a total preparation duration of 6 months to get a 99.68 percentile successfully is commendable and completely shows the firm determination towards the dream of getting into top management B-schools in India. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">&#8220;If you want to hear the complete CAT exam preparation journey of Anuj Kumar Upadhyay \u2013 from getting low marks in mocks to finally cracking the Common Admission Test with 99.68 percentile, candidates should refer the YouTube video specified below.&#8221;<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"From 9 Marks in VARC to 99.98%ile \ud83d\ude31 | iQuanta Topper Strategy | CAT 2026 Motivation\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3eYH_ZBi5SQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-iquanta-s-role-in-the-cat-preparation-journey-of-anuj-kumar\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"iQuantas_Role_in_the_CAT_Preparation_Journey_of_Anuj_Kumar\"><\/span><strong>iQuanta&#8217;s Role in the CAT Preparation Journey of Anuj Kumar<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As per the conversation, Anuj said there are three things that are completely attributed to iQuanta:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>He graduated as an engineer and thought that the QA section was right up his alley, but when he gave the CAT exam for the first time without preparation, he got only 79%ile in QA. Now, what did iQuanta do? Their modules are so relevant to the level of CAT that you will be prepared conveniently. For him, Sajjan sir&#8217;s LRDI approach is really helpful for him. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a concept of midnight classes which are specifically designed by iQuanta for working professionals. At that time Anuj was not working, but he used to attend those classes, and it was really beneficial for him.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One more thing that iQuanta had started during his preparation was CAT before CAT, where he got the concepts revised again and again as needed, which miraculously worked for him getting the concepts revised.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After attending live classes, there would be application classes which he could never afford to miss during the CAT exam preparation. Anuj said, &#8220;For him, application classes worked as a revision tool.&#8221; This all makes learning a little competitive in nature, which is one of the important points during preparation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-words\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Words\"><\/span><strong>Final Words<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Anuj&#8217;s journey from scoring just 9 marks in VARC and 11 marks in QA to achieving a 99.68 percentile and converting IIM Kozhikode in just 6 months is a powerful reminder that early struggles never define your final result. What truly matters is consistency, the right mentorship, and a structured preparation strategy. iQuanta&#8217;s ecosystem, from conceptual and application classes to midnight sessions, CAT-before-CAT revision cycles, and Sajjan sir&#8217;s LRDI approach, gave Anuj everything he needed to completely transform his preparation and reach where he always dreamt of being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Anuj&#8217;s story resonates with you, just remember that the path to an IIM is not reserved for those who start strong; it belongs to those who refuse to quit. Whether you are struggling with VARC, QA, or LRDI right now, the right guidance combined with relentless consistency can turn your CAT dream into reality. As Raj sir always said, you just keep your head down and work, and the results will follow on their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-shadow\" style=\"margin-bottom:30px\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-luminous-vivid-orange-to-vivid-red-gradient-background has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/\" style=\"border-radius:22px\">CAT 2026 Course<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-74063\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-420x420.png 420w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-696x696.png 696w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10-1068x1068.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/CAT-YT-2-10.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we are preparing for the competitive examination, like the Common Admission Test, we are facing a lot of ups and downs during the preparation phase, whether it is about not getting any concept clear, not being consistent towards classes, getting low marks in mocks or anything more.
